英文词源


situate
situate: [16] Situate, originally an adjective, goes back to late Latin situātus ‘placed’, a derivative of Latin situs ‘position’ (from which English gets site [14]). This probably originated as a noun use of situs, the past participle of sinere ‘allow’, hence ‘allow to stay’, hence ‘put’.
=> site
situate (v.)

situate (adj.)
